:PR 12634 mentions the increase of MAXSYMLINKS (src/sys/sys/param.h) to
:64.

    Wellll.... 32 really ought to be enough.  Looking at your PR I think
    you are decoupling your directories a little too much and should
    perhaps reduce the number of symlinks you use.  For example,
    instead of having /public -> site/public -> domain/public -> this/public
    -> jhs.no_domain why not simply have /public be a symlink to
    /site/domain/this/public ?

    While increasing the number would not hurt except, as you say, when
    dealing with loops, I would hate to change it based on this particular
    setup because I think this setup could be optimized considerably to
    get well under the current limit of 32.
